Highlighting: Single-tap selects a highlight

I hate these new changes. I wish you would've left them alone as it was much easier to use.

@Mark Barnes (Logos)  Please do it soon. I'm discouraged from reading on my ipad with Logos.

@Gary Takahashi  It will be available in v33, which is due to be released on April 9.

@Ali Pope  is this happening any time soon? So hard to use right now

The change will be released in a few short weeks. I will update this post when the update is available. 

I am a lay person and backup teacher. I mainly use the mobile app on my iPhone 13 Pro, but also iPad and now my Yoga laptop. I use highlighting features a lot at least I did while studying and preparing my lessons. Now I can’t due to problems when changing colors for a different section, if I accidentally overlap a word it adds layers of different colors of highlighters and creates a muddy mess. When I select the problem word/words then try to delete the muddy colors I cannot delete, the trash 🗑️ symbol is only intermittently available when words are selected. When I click the kebab or the the dots I only get two choices—> add note or additional styles. When I chose the latter then choose none: nothing happens. Trying to adjust/delete a highlight is next to impossible now. I am wasting time and effort trying to fix a mistake than in Bible study. I loved the highlight features especially the Inductive method. Now I find myself not wanting to highlight at all because of the lack of ability to correct errors in my highlights. The delete feature should always be available please! God bless!

This is available in the latest update on the app (version 33).

Tap-to-select for highlights was restored in v33, which was released earlier this week.

@Ali Pope  I really appreciate this update and the great customer support in general.
